Hi folks, I thought a repository for our favourite channels would be helpful for each other and especially new shooters. I don't really use Instagram so my main source is YouTube, but please add on any that you enjoy that aren't on the list.
Lloyd Pattison. Great for gun reviews as well as instructional videos on things like full gun cleans. My favourite aspect of Lloyd's reviews is they don't contain extended sections watching him shoot over his shoulder!

TGS Outdoors. Probably my favourite, prolific content with some really high production quality. Everything from gun reviews, trips to factories, ground tours and peeks at upcoming auctions at holts. The team regularly have guests on discussing things like wildfowling, steel shot and guys from BASC re the general licencing.

Forgotten weapons. Not exactly applicable here, but part of my fascination with guns is the mechanical beauty of them. Ian helps scratch that itch with firearms from all over the world.

Premier guns. This is new channel I've started following. It's from a gun shop and they seem to review more of the affordable side of shotguns. Lots of AYA and Kofs, for example. Not exclusively though, they still review higher end guns too.

Field Sports Britain. I probably don't need to introduce this channel! Not as focused on clay shooting anymore, but plenty of historical footage with George Digweed.

The Shooting Channel. These are OK, but I admit I skip through a lot of their content. Lots of camera shots over the shoulder looking at a blown out sky where you can't see the clay anyway. They try though and I know that some people like that.

And a final wildcard mention to Meat Eater. A hunting channel from America. Steven Rinella is a huge advocate of what hunting means, over and above meat on the table. He travels the world using different techniques and shows hunting in a really mature and interesting way. Then cooks it all!

So that's my quick list, but I've probably emptied those already! Do you have any others that you watch that I might have missed? Would love good quality videos on clay shooting technique, gunsmithing and hunting. And is it worth starting to use Instagram?
